As Roosevelt Made First Stop of Vacation Cruise Lyi.V ' 4 • y ”' 1 4 A JS -■. L -rah \/ I I <F sjy ? i , y

At the gateway of the Caribbean sea, President Roosevelt, aboard the U. S. S. cruiser Houston, made his first land stops on his 10,000 mile vacation voyage, to rest after the recent turbulent congressional session. Here are scenes showing, top, the chief executive with his son Franklin, Jr.,

hot It pulled the , trigger on the ‘ sp r i nkling sys- ( tern. First thing the studio watch- ( men knew was ( w hen they found j gallons of water , pouring out into ' the hall of the director’s buildin g. Norman's room was so full 1 the desk practically was floating and when the watchmen:

e :I__3 Norman McLeod

rushed down to the floor below they found Cecil B. De Mille’s office In almost the same condition. That little | moment of forgetfulness cost the ! studio $1,500 in water damage. You'll want to doubt this, but it I actually happened. A bit player In “The Old Fashioned Way” at Paramount was Mrs. Martha Gilbert. I | They sent her to the wardrobe department to get a 1905 style gown and 15 minutes later she gave a cry that brought attendants running. ‘ The gown she drew was one her sis- ' ter had made for her in San Fran- ‘ cisco in 1905. The crocheted collar, cuffs and button covers Identified it without possibility of error. i The extraordinary coincidence is i accounted for this way: Mrs. Gilbert ■ liked the gown so well she stored it away in a trunk. It was still there 15 years ago. when she moved to Los Angeles, and didn’t turn up until 1926, when Mrs. Gilbert was making up a bag of old clothes for the Goodwill Industries here. From there on, it’s all presumption, but Don Beach, of the Paramount wardrobe department, suggests it found its way to a ’ second-hand store, where he bought it on one of his regular forays for out-es-date clothes. For fast thinking, I like the story of how Director Roy Del Ruth covered up an embarrassing moment the other evening. Roy thought he recognized a friend in a restaurant and slapped him on the back. But the fellow who turned around was a ham actor, who recently gave his- wife a very nasty deal and is due to explain it to a judge in the near future. Before Roy could apologize, the ham drawled: “Really, do I know you?" Quick as a flash, Roy came back: "No, but you WILL when your case comes up in my court." They say the ham is still trying to locate the judge so he can apologize. A letter from an M.G.M.’er adds an Interesting point to my story

about the number of autographed pictures of Greta Garbo now existing in this country. To a man in Cincinnati! goes the distinction of being the only person to hol«l two such pictures. Some years ago. the chap used to keep the long-distance wires hot between the east and Hollywood and wrote Innumerable letters to Greta and her friends. Finally he sent two enormous pictures of the star (nobody knew where he got them) to the studio with the request that Greta autograph them. Impressed by such devotion, and not quite so retiring in those days, the Swede signed them. These pictures today would be almost museum pieces. The new Bing Crosby radio contract just signed is one of the fattest on record. Seven

firms wanted to sign Bing and tile final deal gave him 39 straight weeks with no cancellation clauses o* catches of any kind. The salary mentioned would make your head swim. And. now, just to make things nicer. Paramount wants to

WHAT FAMILIAR NAMES MEAN WATCH THIS COLUMN DAILY Copyrighted by DR. HARRY A. DEFERRARI COCHRAN. The family name j "Cochran" (also spelled “Coch- : rane") does not always indicate an , Irish family, as is generally supposl ed. Many families which bear this ! name have received it because of a former residence in Cochrane in Renfrewshire. Although this place name is of Celtic origin, the family name derived from it must be considered as English. This place name may be translated “the red allotment of land” or “the red division of land,” the adjective “red” in this case doubtless referring to the color of the soil. In spite As this English source it is nevertheless true that the great majority of Cochrans and Cochranes in the United States and Canada have received those names as modern shortened forms of the Irish “O Cogarain” or “Mac Cogarain." meaning respectively “the descendant of Cogaran" and “the son of Cogaran." The personal name “Cogaran" was first given as an occupational nickname and may be translated “the confidential servant." An investigation of the early history of “Cochran" and “Cochrane" reveals that they have very frequently become confused with “Corcoran," which however, has a wholly different origin and meaning.
